Will all the education in the world
that I have got
and
carry behind my name,
be worthy,
if I am unable to erase
the tears
from the eyes
of an impoverished child?

Will all the knowledge that I boast off
be worthy enough,
if I am unable to benefit
the society
at large?

If No was the answer to
both the above questions?
and still
if I have not acted in ways
that has
touched my conscience

I am just another
average
selfish
being on this earth
and nothing else.
